Re: Spectrum (AS33363) Clue?

2020-11-19 Thread Brian K Miller
FW(little)IW, We have a direct peering with the legacy Charter side between ATL 
and CLT, and my WFH line is a TWC legacy connection in NE.  They appear to be 
congested, in some major peering points Ashburn and DC, and possibly internal 
on the backbone.  I am on a college campus, so I blame everything on CoD, that 
new XBOX thing, and PS5s. Good luck getting info out of them, I usually just 
run my mouth with the local guys when they come out, I get more info that way 
than in a ticket.

Is there anyone at Spectrum business with clue who can contact me off list
regarding some peering issues in your network?  I have several customers
seeing 150ms of latency due to traffic bouncing between east and west coasts
to go across the room.  This is between routers both in TAMSFLDE.

Support has said this is "normal" and refused to escalate it.  Some quick
testing with RIPE Atlas probes shows it's the same across 33363.

Thanks,

Re: akamai yesterday - what in the world was that

2020-01-23 Thread Brian K Miller
It was a 48GB for PC, or 12GB+ XBOX/PS4 update for Call of Duty.

Traffic doubled to our dorms after 4pm, and I had to shift traffic around for 
multiple R&E members last night.  My weathermap doesn’t turn orange or red 
often, but it did yesterday.

Yes, that’s my understanding as well.

Re: COVID-19 vs. our Networks

2020-03-13 Thread Brian K Miller
I am on the university enterprise network side and on the state research and 
education network ISP-ish side.  Our users are the ones that will no longer be 
using either network, and going to their home connections, so my focus has been 
dealing with "AHHH something is broken" and it being that the user never used 
wifi for work at home, or 5 or 6 users go "AH we just dropped our RDP 
sessions" during the last couple of days.  After teaching users traceroute and 
how to google "what is my IPv4 address" they were on the same ISP, crossing a 
peering point that is historically congested, but is already getting worse the 
first day of the "trial" for important staff.

I am only going to be running traceroutes back and forth for like the next 
couple to few weeks or however long I am on house arrest.  They closed our 
campus after spring break, which starts at 5pm tomorrow (as does my fun week of 
maintenances), currently for another week.

I have never been so fearful of an IX as I am today.

With talk of there being an involuntary statewide (WA) and then national

impacts of this on your networks if/when this comes to fruition? 

We're already pushing the limits with telecommuters / those that are WFH, 
but I can only imagine what things will look like with everyone stuck at home 
for any duration of time.
